I had such fun painting this inexpensive prop more to my liking. It's all plastic and look to fake or something originally. It was really a fun project, no stress!
My entry for the 2017 Brickstory contest in the "history of music" category hosted by the Croatian LUG Kockice
The caption reads:
The beginning of the 20th century brought music to the masses. With the invention of mass market gramophone records, reproduction of sound and radio broadcast, music was finally available to all social classes. Jazz and Blues were the first new-age genres to form entire cultures around them. These cultures carried a status of advanced lifestyle and rebellion, reaching its high point through Rock and Roll. Music became a profitable business and held the power to start revolutions and stop wars.
My creation tries to capture the era with what I thought would be recognizable images of the early times of the 20th century when music changed forever. It is not meant to represent any existing people or brands.
On display in a small museum inside Burg Dringenberg, Germany. I have a fondness for these machines. Also, I like the elegant green felt lining the turntables of many of them. Their sound was not so good, but they could be played virtually anywhere so long as they remained stationary and stayed level. It must have seemed a great novelty to be able to carry your machine with you and play a selection at will. It certainly made it possible for people of a certain income to enjoy music or dance in their homes. It also spawned something beyond ordinary domestic noise to annoy your roommates and neighbors with. I'm told that records were considered very expensive. Machines like this remained in common use through the late 1930s, though electrical recordings started in the 1920s. The paper sleeve states that the "long playing" 8-inch disk was electrically recorded. Those must have been selling points, even then. The disk here is similar to others of that label I've seen, which were released in 1929.

Having lived in Milton Keynes for 20 years, it was a mystery how we'd never actually made it to the MK Museum, and it's a treasure trove of artefacts, exhibits and hands-on experiences. Well worth a visit when things start to reopen!

Build number 16 for my round of Iron Builder against Jimmy Fortel, the seed part is teh foil used as a needle.
Not hugely happy with this, the speaker should be bigger but anything heavier is too top heavy... Eh It's Iron Builder, no time to complain :p
I've also lost access to my usual camera (think I've done a good job of hiding the lower res on this? ;) ) but that's hopefully just a temporary thing... I also won't be home till the likes of Tuesday next week so don't expect anything from me :p Over to you Jimmy!
Enjoy!

Dom Bosco was an Italian saint, and the founder of the Order of Salesians. In 1883, he had a dream, which is believed by many to be a prophecy of the building of the city of Brasilia.[...]. Dom Bosco's dream was a major inspiration for the building of the city of Brasilia, which sits right between the 15th and 20th parallels. The Dom Bosco Sanctuary Brasilia was built right on the 15h parallel, in honor of his dream.
The Dom Bosco Sanctuary Brasilia is a church that sits right in the center of town [...]. The architecture, like all the architecture in Brasilia, is fantastic [and open to the public].
The walls inside the sanctuary are made of purple and blue vitral, a type of stained glass. The vitral allows light from outside the church to filter in. During the daytime, this stained glass bathes the interior of the sanctuary in a blue haze. It is really spectacular, and well worth the trip to see the sanctuary just to stand inside and experience the lighting. There is also an ornate chandelier which the church staff sometimes light, and this is spectacular, too. My husband paid the requested R$10 to have it lighted for one minute :-)

Polar Star trails over a period of 4 hours. If you notice carefully, you will be able to see a forest fire too.
This perhaps is the best way photographically document the rotation of the earth.
The star with the least movement is the pole star and all the other stars which form a circle around it will do so in a total of 24 hours.
